Would you like the WOL to have a villian arc (mSQ spoilers)

(for the sake of cannon i will refer to WOL as a male)

i was brain storming in my own time, and i was thinking that rn our wol is pretty stagnant as a character. he doesn't do much in dt anymore. he was basically turned into wuk lamats rottweiler.

in the msq we learn that azem is going to have some extra impostance going forward since the key is his (please refer to side stories on the LODESTONE) and it has got me in a way that i feel like WOL is just turned into a mantle piece, but in SHB and EW WOL/meteor was a character too.(he was also a character in arr-stb too but lets be honest most of that was heavily suppressed) he had a story, he had feelings and emotions and he had a personality (tho it wasn't shown well) I get that writing for a character owned by a player isnt easy, you have to be careful not to remove the feeling of control from the player. In some ways this is sad, because it holds him as a character back from expressing himself.

so i wonder going forward maybe a villian arc for the WOL? what if it was not a full blown villain arc, but instead tieng into the final threat of msq. maybe accidentally helping them, like on the 1st when we helped emet without realizing it by becoming a sin eater. I was thinking, for his character development it might actually be good for him? hes definitely not a figure without tragedy, but at the same time. hes got things a bit easy now being a godslaying 7/14s rejoined ascian megabeing. not to mention hes azems legacy which is yet more power points for him.

perhaps, if we couldn't weaken the WOL organically. maybe we could balance him by making him do (willingly or unwillingly) something bad. creating a conflict between him and the other scions, and putting his power in check again. I would personally enjoy a trail of you (the wol) vs all of the scions as they try to stop you from whatever it is your tryna do. could be a good battle with interesting dialogue and mechanics. and besides,. your easily enough for 7 people. but maybe not these 7? this could also be a good way to make the scions feel useful again. ill never forget how weak i felt in dt when i was confronted by the endsinger, knowing full well i was absolutely no match for her all alone.

and then after this smaller arc concluded the wol would have some internal crisis where he has to regain his inner strength. remember shb also did this. and it was some of the best writing in the game. how about a little more of this?

anyway these are just ideas. would you like this too? would you like more development of the WOL, or is he fine as he is?
